Well, they're both full size. It's just the SFX is a competition gun, longer barrel and everything.
Oh shit. I guess I need to look into them more. I legit don’t know fuckinf anything
The basic pistol is offered as the TP9SF, TP9DA and TP9SA. Barrel length is 4.47 inches, overall size is comparable to a Glock 17 or other service pistol, and the gun comes with a pair of 18+1 magazines, or 10+1 in select jurisdictions, with black or desert (tan) finish.
The SF model is a standard striker-fired action, similar to just about any other striker gun on the market. The TP9DA is the double-action model, with a decocking button on the top of the slide that can put the pistol in double-action mode for safer carrying. The TP9SA model has the decocker, but the button acts as a striker deactivator.
The TP9SF Elite is a compact model, with shorter grip and shorter barrel and slide, making it a bit easier for daily carry. Barrel length is reduced to 4.19 inches, and capacity is reduced to 15 rounds in the standard magazine. Available finishes are tungsten gray and black. It is slightly taller, wider and longer than a Glock 19; it would be more comparable in size to an H&K VP9 or Walther PPQ.
The subcompact variant - the TP9 Elite SC - trims barrel length to 3.6 inches and capacity to 12+1 with the pinkie rest magazine, but also ships with a 15-round extended magazine. The Elite SC comes with a pre-milled slide, so you can mount the optic of your choice.
There's also a competition model, the SP9SFX. The X stands for "extended." As you might guess, it has a 5.2-inch barrel with an extended slide, and comes with extended 20-round magazines. It's just like the standard SF, just bigger. If you need more capacity, and the utmost in controllability without giving a darn about concealability...this is your gun.
So, if you want a mid-ground. I recommend the SF Elite, if you want something you can conceal decently well, look for the Elite SC
If you want a full size beast that like to slap bitches, the SFX
Holy shit dude you’re a beast. Sorry I was doing a lot of stuff at once and didn’t see this right away. I read all of this and gonna head to bed and wake up with a clear mind and go over it all again in the morning. @Sparrow
Yeah, no problem bud. It's what I'm here for.
True if big
YUUUGGEEE IF REAL
@Sparrow I'm intrigued by the Caniks thanks for the heads up. Looks pretty solid for the money

Not a problem man, I love them personally. And I've carried and shot a handful of different pistols. They are a really nice bang for buck setup.
don't think there's gonna be a glock ar, nothing on google
if there was, I'd envision billet receivers made to look like legos
Glock AR's would be polymer lowers like the GWACS
Or weird GWACS/Carbon 15 hybrids
Got my new upper in, the blue shit are "prototype" guards and a foregrip I'm working on
Emphasis on prototype because i printed them. lol
Glass should be in tomorrow
pst, but free
i can throw my karve in there, but i dont want to take that off my 7.5 300 black out
@Crye_Salesman edited for clarification lmao
I mean I’m not hoes mad. Although though I’m concerned about the heat
it can resist up to 200c, it melts at 240c, if my shit gets that hot... i have other things to worry about and will probably switch to holding the mag well at that point lol
What about it’s thermal dissipation/retention?
Got a question. If I'm building a rifle that's not intended to be used with armor and to have low recoil, a sporting rifle of sorts, would a fixed stock be more appropriate in order to use a rifle length buffer?
Never messed with rifle length receiver extensions before
I rifle length buffer won’t be needed depending on buffer weight.
The thought that popped into my head was
Adjustable gas block, geissele rifle length spring, jp lightweight buffer, faxon lightweight bcg
I don't like fixed stock because length of pull can change depending on terrain and cover, buffer and spring weight can be adjusted with gas to give you lighter impulses
Hell, I'd sell you my skeletonized BCG
I don't want it because I thought I wanted to make an ultralight build, but decided against it.
I know that the faxon one is g2g but a lot of others out there have issues, so I'm leaning towards that
Wouldn't be too worried about changing terrain and cover anyway since there likely wouldn't be time to adjust the length
Spring length and buffer length don’t matter as much as spring resistance or buffer weight.
I understand it helps a little though, so I'm seeing what all I can tweak within reason money wise
For a light recoiling gun, you’ll want a pretty resistant spring and a heavier than average buffer.
Huh. I read on jp's site that they suggested a lighter buffer when going with a light bcg
Heavier buffers would be slower and slam, rather than snap.
